The union for sheriff's deputies says about 160 of 600 employees are rejecting the COVID-19 vaccine and would prefer to wear masks or test weekly.
The union representing San Francisco sheriff’s deputies said this week a number of its officers will quit or retire early if they are forced to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
The San Francisco Deputy Sheriffs’ Assn. said on its Facebook page Friday that about 160 of 600 sheriff employees are rejecting the vaccine due to religious or other beliefs, and would rather wear masks or test weekly. City officials denounced the union’s position, coming days after seven Bay Area counties reinstated indoor masking requirements to stem transmission of the highly contagious Delta variant of the coronavirus.
